This course covers technical sidemount diving skills and equipment. It includes classroom workshops as well as three days of in-water skill development.
Our Courses are open water trained in a conducive environment. The lake offers a stable, predictable environment that isn't affected by weather conditions.
Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach was founded as a clubhouse. A clubhouse is the central hub for divers. It allows them to get together, plan their next adventure, and act as a resource for each other. All are welcome. Our expansion was based on the belief that the status quo is not sufficient. We've been constantly examining the diving industry's systems and asked ourselves if they are safe, efficient, and fun for both the customer and the community.
With over 200 dives per year, we were certified Open Water Scuba Instructors (PADI), over a decade before. Since then, we have been active instructors in Arizona, Florida, Mexico and New Jersey. Both of us were able to obtain our PADI Master Scuba Diving Diver Trainer rating in less time than a year. In addition, we also teach several specialty courses. On average, we do over 150 dives per year. The majority of our dives last for more than an hour.
Sidemount Diver course materials can save instructors and retailers time. Instructors don't need multiple sources to gather the necessary materials to teach a course. Nor do they need time to develop their own quizzes, exams, or other teaching tools. Customers and students don't need to be told why eLearning has been discontinued for this course.
Scuba diving training should not be limited to learning how to handle any eventualities. Although this is an important part of training, we ensure that you can do it when you're done. However, you should also be able to do it in mid-water and not at the bottom with your knees. This applies to all courses we offer, including Open Water and Technical. You will learn how to scuba dive and not how to survive underwater. It is not always possible to dive in an area that allows you to get down to the bottom if an issue occurs. It is important to be able and willing to tackle any issue in the water. That's what we teach.
Our dive center offers full-service diving with nearly 15,000 square feet of Nitrox Banked and Trimix, as well as oxygen banked. We are also able to provide custom scuba fills. For an appointment, call Sidemount Technical Diving Panama City Beach
